Vanessa del Rio is the all-time queen of the Latina sex stars, a lusty, exotic slice of mocha-skinned sensuality. Her name is synonymous with fiery, unrestrained sex at its rawest. Vanessa made her erotic debut in 1974’s ‘CHAIN DOLL,’ and was a top star right up until her retirement in 1986. Her enthusiasm for all kinds of wild sex made her one of the most bankable of 70’s and 80’s stars. Producers and fans knew that the name Vanessa del Rio meant sexual abandon, plain and simple. Vanessa del Rio appeared in nearly 100 films and videos during her 12-year career and never disappointed fans of lust-crazed Latin erotica. A member of the X-Rated Critics Organization’s Performers Hall of Fame, Vanessa is still one of the best-loved, most fondly remembered sex stars of all time, a bad girl with a feverish hunger for nasty, all-out sex. Vanessa del Rio has been mentioned in countless rap music videos, appeared on various talk shows, and played herself on ABC’s N.Y.P.D Blue.

This picture goes out to everyone who thinks spanking and BDSM has to involve complicated bondage and expensive whips and paddles. Sure, toys are fun — but simple things can be fun, too. Like, for instance, a simple rubber band and a carefully chosen tender bit:

Orientation:

The simplest answer: I'm bisexual. If given the choice between "bisexual" and "pansexual," I will say I'm pansexual because "pansexual" allows for being attracted to more than just two genders/sexes.

If given the choice between "pansexual" and "queer," I'll say I'm queer because I'm more often attracted to people who fall into the androgynous to hyper-masculine side of the gender-spectrum, with the occasional femme driving me crazy too.

Relationship Status:

In a polyamorous relationship

Favorite physical feature on yourself:

My smile

Tattoos/piercings:

I have minimal tattoos now.  Big plans for big tattoos, and getting nipples pierced before too long.

Did you have an imaginary friend growing up?

Not exactly, but I did have mental conversations with my stuffed animals.

What game did you like playing as a kid?

I did a lot of fishing… does fishing count as a game?

When was the last time you cried?

I felt like crying earlier this week but the tears didn't come.

If you could take a class for fun right now, what would you take?

I actually AM taking a class for fun right right now — the Anthropology of Sexuality.

What do you want to learn/add to what you already know?

A LOT.  I'm ever-curious.  There's way too little time to learn everything I want to learn… and too little space to write it out in this answer.

What is one of the bravest things you have ever done?

Put my face on the internet in a way that says "Hey everybody! I'm a kinky bisexual polyamorous sex-worker tranny!"

Special skill/talent, what are you really good at (non-sexual):

I'm actually pretty damned good at playing the flute. 

Special skill/talent, what are you really good at (sexual):

I'm really good at reading a person and talking with them to figure out what will drive them crazy (in a good way) and then combining that with technical knowledge and passion for a really mind blowing experience. I find an intense satisfaction in helping to create intense and memorable erotic experiences.

How old were you when you lost your virginity?

I usually say that I can't really define the time when I lost my virginity — because for me I really think "virginity" was a state of mind, and it seemed to gradually fade away as I fooled around more and more. There was a time when I had a flesh-and-blood penis in my vagina for the first time, but it didn't feel new to me and I didn't feel like I had "lost my virginity" because I didn't think of myself as a virgin at the time.  That night was actually a one night stand, and to this day the guy still doesn't know that he was, technically speaking, my "first"… and I'm glad of that.

What type of people are you into?

People who aren't afraid to be themselves.

What do you fantasize about? What's your fetish? What turns you on?

Wow, this has a really huge answer… I have LOTS of fantasies, lots of kinks, and a lot turns me on.  I fantasize about everything from really plain stuff to things that would be completely unacceptable or impossible in real life (I actually recently started a vlog where I record my fantasies: http://fantasies.DrBeaverboy.com).  Fetishes?  Well… I like biting, role-playing, a variety of S&M activities… I kind of fetishize fetishes actually — I really get a kick out of doing things that are out of the norm in general. 

What was one of the hottest moments of your life?

Being the bang-ee of a "gang bang" at a sex club.

What would you do at an orgy?

I guess that depends on who's there! I'd have fun, that's for sure.

Any regrets?

If there were a way I could have avoided hurting my mom while still being myself, I would go back and re-do it.

Why do you think I chose you for YATBK?

Perhaps because of my honesty?  I know I've been blessed with a pretty face & body, but I think that often what draws people to me is that I don't hide who I am behind a persona.  I smile because I'm actually happy, not just because I'm trying to look pretty for the camera.

From Last Nights Party

Found on Bad Suzy.

By Rosemarie Trockel. Via Sex and Blogs.

NY Times:

The black truffle of Prigord, the cynosure of every foodies dreams, is about to yield its most intimate secrets to a team of French and Italian researchers who have decoded its genome. Surely a great day for gastronomy and yet truffle-lovers be advised some of the new discoveries may reveal more than you really wanted to know.

Truffles are the fruit of fungi that infect the roots of certain trees. They are of keen interest to pigs, particularly sows, because some secrete androstenol, a hormone produced by boars before mating. People who use sows to hunt for truffles often find it hard to prevent a sex-crazed animal from eating the truffle she has found and may lose fingers in the attempt…
